As such, it’s based on a paper that was a favourite for many years in the original Platinum/Platine traditional photographic market for conventional darkroom printing. Red River Paper Pecos River Gloss Duo 86 lb.The base material for this lustre photo paper is made purely from cotton fibers, but it also has a microporous top layer coating to give it a lustre finish.

But if you print editions of 30 or 40 books it is nice to have them all match. This may not be a big deal to someone printing 1 book. I reserve the first grade DUO or almost perfect paper for the regular edition. If you use even slightly curled paper the books become warped.įor my maquettes I just glue 2 reg inkjet pages back to back. A big problem for book printers is getting flat paper. I've used pretty much all DUO paper out there - some are better than others.

You can get by with no interleaf on Mate if you don't care about some shinning and scuffing on the blacks Gloss / SG / Luster holds up pretty good with no interleaf. Matte will always need an archival plastic interleaf. There are also a number of RC Gloss / SG DUO papers out there.
